Essentially, after the Church of the Silver Flame saved Aundair in the purge, those whose families suffered the most at the hands of the lycanthropes clove to the faith as a weapon and tool of vengeance. It was they who then persecuted the shifters in the decades that followed, seeking to salve their wounds with blood. The closer you are to Flamekeep, the easier it is for the Keeper to encourage people to hold to the traditional values of the faith; in Aundair you have fanatics whose zealotry continues to grow, to where they even question the purity of Flamekeep itself. So I'm just saying, you certainly have a militant theocracy next door... but the most dangerous fanatics might be those in your own nation.</blockquote>
